Thanks, Arthur -- it looks like the wiki needs to be revised:  in the
"Install Linux" section, the Debian and Ubuntu paragraph has an Ubuntu
link that points to the Ubuntu packages for opencascade 6.2-7 -- this
is apparently unhelpful.  (This is a typical problem for open source
projects -- outdated links -- but I'm surprised that this problem would
be found on the PythonOCC project, since it is so young!)

It appears that Ubuntu is behind on OpenCascade -- I don't see any
packages of 6.3 for Intrepid.  I guess the recommendation would be to
compile OpenCascade from source in this case?
